A LOT OF ODD FELLOWS.
But in Some Respects They Are Just
Like Other Folks.
Last week we were approached by
several good fellows who wanted to
know whether or not we would accept
an Invitation to a supper Saturday
night. If there Is one thing we do
enjoy above another It is good things
to eat and we assured each and every
one of them Lhat if possible we would
be on hand and be among those pres
ent. The occasion was the annual
supper of the local lodge of the In*
dependent Order of Odd Fellows. The
place was in the storeroom next to
W. C. Carpenter’s grocery store, on
Grenard street. The Ledger man.
however, was somewhat confused and
went up to the place of meeting of the
Holiness church. *hich is overhead.
It did not take him long to discover
that he was In the wrong pew for the
time being, as it was the staff of life
he was seeking at that moment, so go
ing below he found his element. This
is one instance in which the Holiness
folks were above the Odd Fellows—
they were overhead.
The scene that greeted the eye of
The Ledger man was animated. Hon. J.
C. Otts was wrestling with and about
to subdue a well-cooked shauk of a
Shanghai. Sut Hopper, of Cherokee
Falls, was pretending to take care of
his little grand-child hut in reality
was taking care of a tempting ham
sandwich, while the chubby little
grandchild was crowing contentedly
over a well picked chicken hone.
Hundreds of men, women and child
ren were gathered about a long table
that fairly groaned under good things.
Chief of Police Ixmkhart was dividing
time between the contents of the ta
ble and a pretty brunette. The com
mittee wore handsome red and gold
badges and were happiest when attend
ing to the wants of their guests. Joe
Gaffney was all smiles, while Brother
Smith was in his glory. The good
wives of the members had prepared a
feast and they and their friends were
making merry.
Ton. J. C. Otts made the address of
welcome. The blessing was invoked
by Rev. G. P. Hamrick. After supper
Senator T. B. Butler addressed the
gathering on “What Outsiders Think
of Odd Fellowship.” Col. Butler is an
outsider, hut he made a good impress
ion by his speech which teemed with
local hits.
Hon. R. C. Sarratt followed on
“Brotherly Love and Friendship.” He
spoke of the good to follow from lodge
associations. His address was short
and to the point.
Mr. J. E. Greene, a plain farmer
from Cleveland county. N. C., spoke
on “Odd Fellowship.” Mr. Greene was
eloquent and spoke at length on the
work that has been done and is now
being done for the order and by the
order. He is a most enthusiastic mem
ber who delights in speaking of the
work done by the order he loves so
well.
Grandmaster J. J. McSwain, cf
Greenville, spoke of the Marvelous
growth of this lodge and the rapid in
crease in membership in this State.
He also told 01 the orphanage home at
Greenville. Mr. McSwain is one of
the most, eloquent men in the whole
State. His address was greatly en
joyed by all present.
Mr. A. B. Smith was master of cere
monies and acted well his part. 1
The following was the committee
on arrangements: A. B. Smith, chair
man: J. S. Wells, W. H. Dempsey. A.
D. Steadman. W. E. Buice, Joe W.
Gaffney, Z. A. Robertson and P. S.
Persue.
All in all the occasion was a most
delightful one and everybody had a
good time.
A little pleasantry occurred that
will he appreciated by all who know
Oscar Ballanger. Oscar was the dis
penser at this place and in former
days he dispensed chemically pure in
this same building. Oscar came along
and a wag said. “Let’s go take a
drink.” (meaning a drink of the ice
cold lemonade). Oscar said: “No,
no. hoys. There was a time when we
had plenty of it in here, but you can’t
get it now.” It. wasn’t so much what
Oscar said as the manner in which he
said it that caused the crowd to laugh
at his sally.
